Happy feast day to all of our confreres, sisters, and all members of the Alphonsian family! St. Alphonsus, pray for us!

Come to the Jersey Shore to spend time with God as the summer draws to an end. The Redemptorists are having their annual summer retreat for our family, friends, coworkers in mission, our associates, and parishioners September 6-8 at San Alfonso Retreat House in Long Branch, NJ.

Please join us in congratulating the following Redemptorist priests and brothers who celebrate significant anniversaries this year of their religious profession and/or ordination to the priesthood. A special Mass with family and friends was celebrated July 20 in the main chapel at Stella Maris in Timonium, MD.

The annual Redemptorist Preaching Institute will be held August 19-22 at San Alfonso Retreat House in Long Branch, NJ. Speakers include: Denver Provincial Fr. Harry Grile Fr. Gary Ziuraitis, director of communications for the General Government Brother Dan Korn Rocco Palmo , author of the Whispers in the Loggia blog Fr.
